Description

Plankton observations along the South Brazilian Shelf, with a focus on the Cabo Frio Upwelling System. The sampling was done using images generated by an in-situ imaging device, the Lightframe On-Sight Key Species Investigation (LOKI): An underwater camera system designed for vertical hauls for continuous, in-situ imaging of zooplankton. It is equipped with an environmental sensor (CTD) that measured the density of the water column, salinity, oxygen concentration and temperature.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 862428 (MISSION ATLANTIC).

Lineage
Plankton assemblages were surveyed from near the bottom to the surface in the South Brazilian Shelf. Transects were performed between 2020 and 2021 during oceanographic cruises to perform a 3D map of the plankton distribution in the water column, using oceanographic and biological parameters.
